After Kamal Hassan and Rajinikanth it is Rahman for Jallikattu. With the PM Modi disposing off CM Pannerselvam citing the issue as sub-judice, the people now have no other option but go on a hunger strike.
Joining a host of Tamil celebrities who’ve come forward against the Supreme Court’s ban of Jallikattu in Tamil Nadu, eminent composer AR Rahman has decided to fast on January 20.
The composer took to Twitter to announce the same, revealing that he’d be doing so in support of the state as whole.
Earlier, Kamal Haasan had compared banning of Jallikattu to a hypothetical ban on biriyani, asking for a ban on the latter, if the former were justifiable.
Actors Suriya, Simbu, Shivakartikeyan etc had all come out in support of the sport, vociferously, and asked for a lift on the ban by the Apex court.
The state CM Pannerselvam had also reiterated the government’s resolve to go ahead and conduct the sport.
The government has also asked the Centre to promulgate an ordinance for the smooth functioning of the bull taming sport.The Supreme court said that the state High court will deal with the issue.
